Today’s focus is a soft, pastel gray hair makeup with subtle shimmer look. I realize shimmer is often on the “what not to do for over-40 makeup” lists, but rules are boring.
I like to keep my makeup time well under ten minutes. This took about seven.
All Products used today for this soft, pastel gray hair makeup with subtle shimmer look are non-toxic and cruelty-free.

For today’s soft, pastel gray hair makeup with subtle shimmer look, I used:
Skin Twin Featherlight Foundation in light 230
Skin Twin Creamy Concealer in Light 1
I use the Better Beauty Blender to apply my foundation and concealer and to set concealer with powder
Mattifying Powder (apply with a damp beauty blender to set concealer) gently buff after it has set for a few minutes.
Illuminating Cream Highlighter in Rose Glow for cheeks, lips, and lids (applied with fingertips).
Illuminating Cream Highlighter in Pearl Glow as Highlighter on Brow bone and Cheeks
Lily LoLo Eyebrow Duo Powder for Brows
ILIA Mascara
B Fearless Lipstick (just a touch to add a deeper pink over the rose glow).
That’s it. I really like this look. It’s natural and youthful.
